Coupon does not work for LHD new kit. Thanks for video. I do want more Bass but I've heard problems with battery draw leading to errors with new firmware updates. Have you thought of a video to replace stock speakers with better ones to get better bass?
Stop making these videos. You make it look so easy and well informed. I ordered the auto frunk after watching your auto frunk install video 😂. Now, already considering this audio upgrade too. Keep up the good work mate 👍🏽
Hi Dhruv. Would love to see a Premium Kit install that includes a subwoofer. It's my only gripe with my M3. I would have happily paid for a Premium Stereo upgrade if it was an option! Thanks in advance!!
Just did this myself and it was a success! A couple of things I'd like to mention: 1) When removing the panel under the glovebox, I could not remove the right-most cable. I tried pulling until my fingers started bleeding but no luck. So I left that one in and fortunately it wasn't much of an issue 2) When everything was done, my front windows started acting strange. When pushing the window switch "full down" or "full up", the automatic raising/lowering did not work. Fortunately there was an easy fix - I recalibrated the windows by holding the switch down until the window was down and then for a other 5 seconds, then repeated the same thing while raising the window. Edit: Also, I didn't have that fancy screwdriver so I didn't remove the bottom panel on the driver's side. This did not create any issue at all.
Awesome work Jehan - glad to hear it was a success! And thanks so much for sharing your experience about how the install went. I'm sure it will be super helpful for other viewers 🙂 The window playing up issue is very interesting as I've never had that so far but it's good to learn something new.
Your production quality in these videos is excellent, Dhruv. Your voice is so clear, and you have speeded up the video in just the right places to show exactly what is required and nothing more. I think you must be wasted in your day job :) clearly you should be involved in training for Tesla mobile techs worldwide! This doesn’t apply to my earlier Model 3 which already has the premium audio, but it was still interesting to see the differences - you have an improved auxiliary battery, and an OBD socket where mine does not
Ah Alex mate thanks so much for your kind words - genuinely really appreciate your feedback as it means a lot to me! I have just as much fun at my day job as I do producing these videos :) Sometimes I do wish I had more time on my hands to do more of these videos but trying to focus on quality over quantity. The OBD port seems to be a new addition to the 2022 MIC Teslas... Hope to catchup with you sometime soon (whenever the next meet up is)
I'd love to see an installation demo the the AMD Version F audio upgrade comes out, this is by far the clearest and easiest to follow installation guide I've seen on TH-cam to date for an audio upgrade!
Hi Dhruv, are the navigation and other sounds still okay after recent software upgrades? I am considering getting the kit but not sure if it will still work hence worth spending time and money or not..
Thanks for the review and install video. Looks like its worth it, as just the other day I was having trouble tuning my sound as it always seemed to be missing something in the mid range.
No worries Jonathan - glad it helped! It definitely enhances the mids and the highs so should be a decent upgrade as long as you're not wanting any improvements to the bass.
Bough it. They forget to send it🤦🏻😂 I email them. The finally send it after almost 2 months. Try to install it : one of the conection : WRONG one (blue one) 🤷🙆🤦🏻
This was the video that’s gonna make me order one haha. Although being in the states it’s all gonna be backwards for me lol. Still looks like a fun project and well worth the money spent imo
Hi Dhruv, was your M3 affected by 'Tesla Cracks Down on Audio Mods To Unlock Premium Audio Speakers in the Model 3 RWD' by any chance? Apprently, some Tesla Model 3 owners complained that the navigation voice was unclear after updating to 2023.26.7 and 2023.26.8 software versions. Regards.
Im so confused. I have a 2023 rwd and my kit is totally different. Mine has half the stuff as yours. It is only supposed to be one side install. Is it the left hand side or drivers side?! I can only find american videos. Thanks
Thanks Alex! I messaged Hansshow about this to confirm the difference and this is what they just came back with: "The 2022 AMD Ryzen DIY cable with the control box, and the new version DIY cable insert the frequency divider integrated with the harness, so it can save the cost. But the function is same." However, I've noticed on their website that the new DIY version is only compatible with the LHD version of the car. So if you have a LHD model, I would get the new one to save some money. Hope this helps 🙂
I have a 2022 right hand drive - I had the kit professionaly installed.Driver side speakers not working,installer saying he installed it as per instructions & won't do anything else until I hear back from Hannshow who are not responding to me - any advice?
Of course. The amp is built into the CPU. Hansshow's harness foolishly runs the 4 dormant speakers on the same single channel on the amplifier as the dash speakers, instead of it running on separate channel. Thus, putting heavy unnecessary stress on the amplifier (and CPU). Guess what happens when your amplifier goes 💥?
Did i order the wrong kit? Mine isn't the same as yours…. I have a model 3 rwd 2023 ryzen.. so i ordered the kit that is suppoed to activate the 4 extra front speakers (the speakers on the door by the side mirror and the speaker on the A pillar.. now because you have an european car .. i had to mirror in my mind everything you did.. but your connector isn't the same.. i only have one big connector (the one you said that requires a screw driver to push the pin) .. anyway.. apparently installing the kits has its con.l apparently it drains your 15v volt battery, and all you chime sounds are too loud.
Thanks so much Jehan! It should take no more than 1-1.5 hours max. It obviously took us a little longer due to recording from different camera angles, etc. but I’ve heard of some people completing the install in about 45 mins.
Hi, I'm not a fan of highs but you mentioned that it should be suitable if you adjust it in the sound settings. Have you noticed the bass is still strong when doing this? Also, I noticed there is a "control box" that comes with the kit, you didn't use this from what I can see, what is that for? Great vid!
Yes if you tone down the highs/treble a bit from the settings, you can get a much more balanced overall sound in my opinion. There was pretty much no underlying impact to the bass with this kit but due to brighter highs on default settings, to some it may sound like that the bass has been dampened a bit. The control box for this version of the kit just literally makes it work - there are no buttons or anything you can change on there hence I didn't really talk about it much. Hope this helps 🙂
Thanks Dhruv, ordered the kit without controller (though not sure really what the difference is in sound). Wasn't sure the paper instructions were clear enough especially when hanshaw video isn't consistent. Thanks for the details! Will install today
EV Kiwis , excellent video ! Can you please make one with the full premium DIY/ maybe also some subwoofers / amplifiers comparisons ? Thank you ! ;) #Subscribed ! :D
Certainly interesting. Question : as the car is always connected to Tesla with Wi-Fi / premium connectivity, can they tell that you have altered the car and if so does that cause an issue. Another M3 RWD friend told me that they can lock you out of the supercharger network. I’ve no idea how true that is though? Also I’d be interested to see if you can add a sub! You’ve got yourself a new subscriber, thank you! Cheers Jon
Note for those installing the kit for the 2023 models - - all the installation is in the passenger side per the instructions provided. Don't ignore that and dismantle your entire driver side like me.
Caution: The 2022+ version did not work in a 2023 model 3 Sr+. While the driver side additional two speakers worked, all except one of the passanger side speakers stopped working.
Excellent question! The DIY (New Version) did not exist when I recorded this video but I have asked Hansshow and they have said that both function exactly the same way. The new version has an integrated control box but is only compatible with the 2022 models with the AMD Ryzen chip. If you have an older model with an Intel Atom chip, then you still need to get the original DIY version. I would get the cheaper new version if you have the AMD chip.
No unfortunately the 4 speakers I highlighted in the video are present in the car but not connected/activated. This installation was done on the 2022 Model 3 and they definitely were not activated from factory. Hope this helps 🙂
I have a question for you regarding Fog light's my Tesla doesn't have any , I see you can buy new LED turn signal and fog light's, What i want to know is there any wiring installed for new light's or do you need a new wiring loom installed ?
I've seen a couple of other videos on this and it seems that there is a wire that exists in the car already. However, since the fog lights are disabled in the SR+/RWD firmware, the existing plug needs to be rewired to work along with the headlights rather than having its own on/off switch.
@@baldrick2200 What I mentioned above applies to all base variants of the Model 3 I believe... so you would still need to rewire the plug as unfortunately the fog light control cannot be enabled in the firmware in the SR+/RWD variants.
Hello Everyone, taking delivering of my 2022 model 3 next Monday . It does come with the upgraded immersive audio but I was wondering if this particular upgrade can be on the 2022 model 3 ? Thanks
@@aasiflaskar1315 sorry unfortunately I'm not aware of the anyone that does installations locally here in NZ. If I do come across someone in the future, I will leave a comment here :)
The default audio system has 8 speakers (with no subwoofer, 1 amp) in the 2022 RWD model and 13 speakers (with 1 subwoofer, 2 amps) in the 2022 LR and Performance models.
@@EVKiwis so if you would like to have the 13 speaker setup as the long range, the option would be Hannshow Version A? Also interesting on where to add the DIY 2 rear surround speakers and for cable management
@@chichyiphone4 That would be the Hannshow Version F kit for the full setup with the subwoofer (it's currently out of stock on their website). If you get the Version A Kit with the 2 rear surround speakers, they get attached to the rear parcel self in the car and the cable gets routed through the trim panels of the rear doors and next to the rear seats. Hope that helps 🙂
Seems like it was introduced in all the 2022 models manufactured in the Shanghai factory (so not just NZ specific). Even my 2021 made in China Model 3 doesn't have it.
Installing mods like these doesn’t exactly void the warranty on the car as that would be a violation of the law. However, if you install this kit and anything related to the audio system breaks and Tesla feels/shows that something isn't working because of this kit, they can deny warranty work on that part. The installation is easily reversible if you do need to take it into warranty for some reason.
To bad that he didn’t get the kit with the 2 speakers in the back (existing only prior to the 2020 version, though not connected) and the missing amp 😂
@@nateice1 Thanks - did you install? I have a RHD and guess one connector under driver side, one under passenger side then the 3rd connector is under the passenger side door trim B piller?
For reference. It does work on 2023 models and the RHD new DIay version means you do still have to go through the centre console. The LHD drive new version everything is on the passenger side.
Yep! I sure was and raised my disappointment in the sound system review video I did last year (th-cam.com/video/P_zp-rNwLk4/w-d-xo.html). Have no idea why they do this honestly... I mean take the speakers out completely if you aren't going to connect them. Or offer them as a paid upgrade if you don't want to include them in the base model 🤷♂️
I haven’t personally installed it as there’s no difference in performance. The new version just has an integrated control module and is cheaper, otherwise no other difference. The installation is pretty much the same as shown in this video 🙂
Don't buy it! They send me the cable after I remind them a month after I paid that they forgot to send it. When I got it: no instructions. I try to fit as in video and when arrived at pillar to plug that one there: no match. Contact them: send them pictures and they told me that is a diferent place to plug it notcas you see here, but on the other side ... They send me some pictures with instruction where the car in the pictures is a LHD. At this stage I had enough of theyrs s stupidity and just tell you: don't waste your time and money

The installation is easily reversible if you do need to take it into warranty for some reason.
@@Y0UTUBEADMIN They can say what they like, but it does not change the laws of the country. In most countries it mods will only void the warranty if the mod you made causes an issue. So if you mod your sound system and have a failure with the sound system it will void the warranty on the sound system but the other components/operations of the car will not be effected. I believe the difficulties will be, who has the onus of proof of whether your mods effected some other component or operation of the vehicle. In instances in the past where I have seen a vendor try to deny warranty of an unrelated fault in New Zealand the vendor quickly backed down and honoured the warranty when challenged.
What does it actually do to change it like that? Do those 4 speakers not do anything usually? Is it like that in the 2022 Model Y? Seems odd to have speakers connected to nothing?
Yes it sure does! I just seems absurd that the speaker hardware is there but Tesla just decides to leave it unconnected in the base models of the 3. This is due to the difference in the partial premium interior of the RWD/SR+ vs the full premium interior of the LR/Performance variants which I talked about in my previous sound system review video (th-cam.com/video/P_zp-rNwLk4/w-d-xo.html). For Model Y, luckily even the base RWD model for the AU/NZ has the full speaker system so this is not required. Have you received a delivery date for your Model Y yet?

@@tomwootton254 I just ordered a few days ago and will complete mod soon. New version only requires one side to be taken apart. I have LHD.
Yes it will work if you buy the AMD version as another viewer suggested 🙂 the speaker config has not changed from the 2021/2022 models
For reference. It does work on 2023 models and the RHD new DIay version means you do still have to go through the centre console. The LHD drive new version everything is on the passenger side.
Glad that the new Model Y has all the premium features which you do not have to pay for
Absolutely agree! The premium sound system alone makes up for the little price difference between the 3 and the Y
It’s included in the price so technically not free
@@JesusisKing2000 guess you could say that, point is nothing extra like the model 3
Anyone else annoyed that they have to even do this just to get speakers that are ALREADY INSTALLED to work 😭
Yep! I sure was and raised my disappointment in the sound system review video I did last year (th-cam.com/video/P_zp-rNwLk4/w-d-xo.html). Have no idea why they do this honestly... I mean take the speakers out completely if you aren't going to connect them. Or offer them as a paid upgrade if you don't want to include them in the base model 🤷♂️
There is also footwell lights and door pocket lights installed but disabled by tesla on SR models
😵💫😵💫😵💫
Have you installed the new version of this kit?
I haven’t personally installed it as there’s no difference in performance. The new version just has an integrated control module and is cheaper, otherwise no other difference. The installation is pretty much the same as shown in this video 🙂
Anyone if this works for the 2023 model 3?
Yes it does - just buy the AMD version 🙂
This is way too much effort just for 4 speakers to work.
Don't buy it! They send me the cable after I remind them a month after I paid that they forgot to send it. When I got it: no instructions. I try to fit as in video and when arrived at pillar to plug that one there: no match. Contact them: send them pictures and they told me that is a diferent place to plug it notcas you see here, but on the other side ... They send me some pictures with instruction where the car in the pictures is a LHD. At this stage I had enough of theyrs s stupidity and just tell you: don't waste your time and money
goodbye warranty
Installing mods like these doesn’t exactly void the warranty on the car as that would be a violation of the law. However, if you install this kit and anything related to the audio system breaks and Tesla feels/shows that something isn't working because of this kit, they can deny warranty work on that part. The installation is easily reversible if you do need to take it into warranty for some reason.
I have asked Tesla and showed them this video and they have said this is instantly voiding warranty.
@@Y0UTUBEADMIN They can say what they like, but it does not change the laws of the country. In most countries it mods will only void the warranty if the mod you made causes an issue. So if you mod your sound system and have a failure with the sound system it will void the warranty on the sound system but the other components/operations of the car will not be effected. I believe the difficulties will be, who has the onus of proof of whether your mods effected some other component or operation of the vehicle. In instances in the past where I have seen a vendor try to deny warranty of an unrelated fault in New Zealand the vendor quickly backed down and honoured the warranty when challenged.
Is this upgrade still available as I could not see it on their website? I have a late 2021 Tesla Model 3 SR+ here in Australia
Thanks
What does it actually do to change it like that? Do those 4 speakers not do anything usually? Is it like that in the 2022 Model Y? Seems odd to have speakers connected to nothing?
Yes it sure does! I just seems absurd that the speaker hardware is there but Tesla just decides to leave it unconnected in the base models of the 3. This is due to the difference in the partial premium interior of the RWD/SR+ vs the full premium interior of the LR/Performance variants which I talked about in my previous sound system review video (th-cam.com/video/P_zp-rNwLk4/w-d-xo.html). For Model Y, luckily even the base RWD model for the AU/NZ has the full speaker system so this is not required. Have you received a delivery date for your Model Y yet?
Just getting ready to do this! Thanks so much for this breakdown, its going to be super helpful!!
Thanks Matt, I’m glad I got this published just in time then 😀 Let me know how the install goes for you.
